Welcome to Gaia! ::

All right you guys, before the game kicks off, there will be a few NPCs that you will need to be aware of. You won't be able to know much about them, but they will be essential to keeping the story on track.

I will be in control of ALL NPC's.

The number of NPC's is not limited to eighteen, seeing as they don't have the potential to be in play all at once. They also don't have to necessarily all be from different factions or subfactions, and they can accompany you on your journeys as guides and assistants. Consider them MY list of characters to play.

The number of NPC's might also grow or shrink as time goes on, depending on what happens, and some of them might not necessarily have your best interests as top priority. Keep that in mind when interacting with them.

When an new NPC is added, the title of this thread will change/a new post will be added. Keep an eye on it.

Hope to hear from you all!

~ Mayhem

Character Name: Falian Caroline Reign. But that'll be Hellz Reign to you.
Subfaction: Unknown
Age: Looks to be in her teens, but everyone who's spoken to her knows she is MUCH older than that.
Bio: She doesn't like to speak about her past - she lashes out at anyone who asks with a vicious temper. All anyone can gather from it is that she experienced a great loss and, with that loss, fled her subfaction - whichever that one is. Now she simply survives, and even that seems to be taxing.
Persona: Beneath that cute little face lies a creature who is merciless, ruthless, and cold. Reign is famous for having an incredibly short temper, and when her temper runs out she's incredibly violent, prone to lash out regardless of consequences. The results are often disastrous. Her words are scathing - vicious - and she pays no mind to how her actions affect others. To her, cruelty is strength - probably yet another side effect to whatever pain she has been forced to endure.
Weapons/Spells: Her fangs and claws, her intellect, stealth and speed. Her ability to command others and warp the minds of people is also very useful.
Mission in Life: Though she seems to have no goal in life, she fights for her life with a vicious, almost painful fury. Either she is afraid of death, or there's something left unfinished.
Quirks: Her heavy metal collar doesn't seem to hinder her at all - but it only appears in her wolf form. Her coloration is unique.
Any Factions or Subfactions She Likes? Why?: None. If she does, no one knows about it.
Any She Hates? Why?: She despises the Inu subfaction, and all vampires. She also has a minor annoyance for the Neutral subfaction of Human, thinking them stupid and worthless for having nothing to give. Also, again, for the record, all Vampires need to die.
Lycanthrope Appearance:

"So ******** blow those words out the back of your head - I've heard it all and I'm done with that s**t. You tell me lies and you get what you get so blow those ******** words out the back of your head."
Other: Reign is something of a hypocrite; she claims to hate liars, and yet she won't hesitate to lie if it means getting something that she wants. Does that mean she hates herself?

Character Name: Daciana Shadow
Subfaction: Forest
Age: 19
Bio: She is not technically Alina's sister, but they might as well be, for their closeness. Unlike Alina, however, Daciana - or Daci, as she's usually known as - had a very bad childhood, with an abusive father and a submissive mother. When she turned seventeen she ran away - one wouldn't be surprised if she fled around the same time Alina was kicked out. They met each other by pure chance - it was the day Alina discovered her magical abilities - and they decided to stick together ever since.
Persona: Daciana is rash, short-tempered, and just a bit naive when it comes to matters of the heart. Alina has to keep a watch on her and make sure love doesn't make Daci do stupid things. The lycanthrope is very quick to fall in love, and when she does, she falls hard. Though they get into fights a lot, Alina and Daciana love each other. They have a bit of a strange relationship. The lycanthrope also drifts in and out of suicidal tendencies.
Weapons/Spells: While Alina controls water, Daciana has a bit of control over fire. Alina can take a mental beating, and it could be said that Daciana is incapable of feeling physical pain. In more ways than one, they are twins. Daci has a large sword that she carries with her when she's unable to fight as a wolf. When she IS a wolf, however, Alina is in charge of the sword. The weapon is enchanted with fire magic.
Flames of the Heart
Mission in Life: Before Alina, Daciana had no mission. Now it is to protect her sister with her life, and to be with her forever. Maybe even after death.
Quirks: Blood strengthens her abilities, much like that of a vampire. But she doesn't need it to survive. Though she is a virgin, sex would have the same effect. Her neck is impeccably sensitive to the touch.
Any Factions or Subfactions She Likes? Why?: Her own, of course. And though she is a lycanthrope, she judges vampires not as a whole, but by individuals. Dragons, however, terrify her.
Any She Hates? Why?: She doesn't hate the dragons, but more like she just can't seem to trust them like Alina can. Cardmasters give her the chills.
Lycanthrope Appearance:

Pets: None. Some would say that she is Alina's pet.




Character Name: Kaiga Aire
Subfaction: Temple
Age: Oh, God, uh... 284? 184? 1084?
Bio: Kaiga is indeed a Temple Lycanthrope, but he was part of an elite group that tried to focus magical energy into sets of armor that could change shape with the Lycanthrope and were full of magical properties. He was the test subject and - before he ran away - the armor experiment (deemed Project AURORA by the researchers) was labeled a success, but all progress was lost due to an unexpected fire. That was when Kaiga was very young, and his human form would be in his thirties-to-forties right now, but now he doesn't even remember how old he really is.
Persona: He is laid-back and even-tempered, quick to lend a hand and his strength to those who need it. He's all about easy silences, and he likes to watch the stars on clear nights. The lycanthrope loves to act like a child, even though he knows perfectly well how to be an adult. With he and Reign such polar opposites, it's a miracle that they've even stayed friends this long. Kaiga is the only one in the world that Reign respects, though you'd never be able to tell. He has a powerful sense of honor, and will step in if he believes someone is being treated wrongly, regardless of the circumstances.
Weapons/Spells: His armor is gifted with strange and curious energy. It acts on its own sometimes, and it's incredibly unpredictable: sometimes hurting and sometimes saving Kaiga and those around him.
Mission in Life: To protect those around him and help people in any way he can. Many people in Mercury City see him as a father or grandfather, and he's always getting presents and gifts.
Quirks: Due to a traumatic accident that happened while he was in his human form that resulted in him losing consciousness, Kaiga is unable to return to his human form. In fact, it happened so long ago, that he has all but forgotten it. With that loss, it also seemed that his ability to tell time has been shattered; days feel like weeks and hours feel like minutes. He is unable to feel the passage of years.
Any Factions or Subfactions He Likes? Why?: He seems to like everyone, and he is so laid-back nothing really seems to affect him negatively.
Any He Hates? Why?: No one, really. But it would be shocking if he DID hate anyone.

Line of Song that Made You Choose That Song:
"Everything is a choice. Go ahead, raise your voice. Might as well forgive yourself- that means more than someone else. Set you free, break the shell- tell your demons farewell. I tell you don't dwell."
Other: He wasn't born with those markings - they suddenly appeared when he was given the armor. They glow right before the armor's magical effects activate.

Character Name: Dzan Kibalte
Subfaction: Cavern
Age: 164
Bio: Only a child by Lycanthrope standards, making mistakes is inevitable. One of the biggest, most glaring mistakes he made most recently is conveniently forgetting to tell his human love interest that he is the son of the Cavern Lycanthropes' largest pack's leader, destined to rule it one day and lead it out of the figurative darkness it has sunken into. Sure, she knows he's a Lycanthrope, but it's kinda important to let her know how important he is. So when he was called away to help his sickly father and complete the rite of passage into Alpha Male, he was unable to tell her in time, and now she is left wondering what the hell happened.

But now his father is dead, and Dzan is leader of the Cavern Lycanthrope. He has no way to tell her of what expired, unless he gives up his title as pack leader and finds her again. Which... he can't exactly bring himself to do.

He is the exact opposite of Faerna when it comes to power, because by being born to powerful parents, he is powerful himself. His father, a grand, almost majestic leader in his prime, has aged significantly since the birth of his son, and had become very sick very quickly. So basically, Dzan had to drop everything and run to him, including Faerna and everything they had together. But family comes first, right?
Persona: At first glance, you could say Faerna and Dzan are a perfect couple. They are both absurdly sarcastic, pessimistic to a fault, and look like they can beat the crap outta you without breaking a sweat. However, when you look deeper, past the metal and hardcore rock, you will be convinced that they are soul mates. They are both impeccably sweet - almost teddy-bear like in their nature - and are somewhat shy in unfamiliar environments. Both have a passion for music and the visual arts, and when they were together, they had the habit of singing both together and for each other - but only when alone. Neither of them were even close to ready to showing affection in public.
Weapons/Spells: His strength is monstrous while his speed is unmatched, and his jaws can chew through iron bars. Being a Cavern Lycanthrope, he is almost blind, but has the interesting ability to project himself into other people's minds - just to see what they see. Only Faerna really knows of this ability, however. In his human form those nasty-looking paper clips serve as both energy-limiters and throwing needles.
Mission in Life: Secretly, he wants to find Faerna again, and apologize. Whenever he has a quiet moment to himself, he finds his thoughts going to her, and wonders if she ever thinks of him like he does her.
Quirks: When he's bored, stressed, or depressed with nothing to do, he has the awful habit of giving himself new piercings. When he DOES have something - preferably a black piece of paper and some charcoal, he will sketch what he likes to see.
Any Factions or Subfactions He Likes? Why?: He has great pride in his own faction, and rather likes humans because of his fondness for one in particular.
Any He Hates? Why?: Vampires are hatred personified for him and his entire pack.
Lycanthrope Appearance:
This is what he'll look like when he's all grown up.

Other: Secretly, Dzan is an absolute softy. For instance, his favorite insect is the butterfly, and his favorite ocean creature is the cuttlefish. Fluffy, right?

Character Name: Elliot Masague
Subfaction: Mountain
Age: 485
Why Did He Betray the Faction?: He just got on the bad side of the wrong people. His smart mouth, snide comments, and violent tendencies pissed off the wrong people, and thus Elliot was accused of molesting and then raping the alpha male's youngest daughter (whether he really did it or not is up for debate). He couldn't defend himself, so solid the case against him, that he was forced to leave otherwise he would be executed.
How Did He Escape?: He bailed. Plain and simple, he bailed his poor, defeated a** outta there as fast as he could. But in doing so got a wicked gash across the side of his neck from where one of his fellows attacked him.
What Does He Do Now?: Elliot does what he does best. Charm his way into beds, chills out with the chick for a few days, and when he gets bored lets her down 'easy', and tries out for fresh meat. He'll only join quests if there are beautiful women involved.
Bio: Elliot is the son of the pack's blacksmith, who was in charge of furnishing weapons for the Lycanthropes in their human forms. Elliot himself was in charge of training younger Lycanthropes in the art of warfare. As a result, he has a huge amount of patience, but only acts like he does so he can attract the ladies. On the flip side though, he knows the strengths and weaknesses of many different weapons. Everything was normal until the accusation, and thus the ruining of Elliot's life.
Persona: Well, to put it simply, he's an a*****e. He lures pretty girls in with his pretty face, bright eyes, charming smile, but he isn't exactly so subtle to keep his true ways a secret. But he hopes, by the time the girl realizes who he really is, they'll be too in love with him to leave him. He's one of those stereotypical bully-jocks. In short, he and Queenie would get along well. Fortunately though, they've never met. Hopefully they never will.
Weapons/Spells: Elliot mainly uses a javelin as a weapon, but his favorite is a Gladius his father made for him on his one hundredth birthday. That and the pair of skives he carries at his belt. Though he can fight long range with arrows, throwing knives, and shuriken, he prefers close-up and personal fights.
Mission in Life: To get all the beautiful women. What else is there? He could give Danave a run for his money.
Quirks: Elliot has an acute sense of distance. He can tell you the exact length and width of almost anything without measuring them. Great for shooting accurately for long distances. And like all Mountains, he has a ridiculous sense of balance.
Any Factions or Subfactions He Likes? Why?: The beautiful ones. He doesn't even care about the vampires and his faction's ultimate hatred for them. As long as something's beautiful, he loves them. However, he has a very specific image of what he defines as 'beautiful'.
Any He Hates? Why?: The ugly ones. Duh.

Lycanthrope Appearance:

Other: Elliot's reactions towards homosexual tendencies border on the homophobic.

Character Name: Koratis Sharpclaw Blazefierce
Subfaction: None
Age: 4985 Years of Age
Bio: The seemingly 'mutant' daughter of the King and Queen of the Karrakast Clan, she fled the clan as an outcast at a young age, abandoning her parents and her siblings. Unlike the clan, she was born with the ability to change shape from human to dragon like the 'true' dragons, and thus she was considered a threat to the society the others had created. The outcast of the outcasts, she had to flee, and she carries the secret heavily on her heart. She doesn't like to tell people she is a dragon, for then that would raise unsettling questions.
Persona: She is confident, charismatic, and people seem to flock to her. She abhors weaklings, or those who boast without any means to back it up. Powerful in both physical strength and magical properties, she is a force to be reckoned with.
Weapons/Spells: She has a sword made of thick titanium that can slice through solid rock, along with a heavy metal shield that she weilds with ease. Entirely, her armor weighs more than three hundred pounds. The spells she knows are many - the ancient secrets of the dragonic faction. How she knows them is unknown, but word is that she taught herself. Her skills range from all the elements to a rumored few dark magics that shouldn't be spoken of. EVER. She also carries pacts with dozens of different dragons. Nowadays, she works as a mercenary or a laborer.
Mission in Life: To be the best warrior she can be, and to make her family give her the respect she deserves.
Quirks: Though she's a heavy drinker, it doesn't affect her at all. Her favorite alcoholic beverage is a honey-based drink called Vspiteer. She can also sprout wings from her back without changing completely into a dragon.
Any Factions or Subfactions She Likes? Why?: The Human Faction, as it gives her work. The Dragon Faction, as she befriended many lessers.
Any She Hates? Why?: The Dragon Faction, for abandoning her, and the Head Hunters. She's had way too many run-ins with them for comfort.

Line of Song that Made You Choose That Song:
"Some days I'm a super b***h up to my old tricks, but it don't last forever. Next day I'm a super girl out to save the world, and it keeps gettin' better."
Other: No sword can pierce her skin, let alone her armor. She is invincible.

Character Name: Tertera Flametongue, but she goes by Justina.
Subfaction: Fire
Age: 5010
Bio: In her clan she is one of the best warriors there are - powerful in both magic and brute strength. So when Roth fled justice due to a foolish, childish mistake, it was only natural she be the one to utterly crush him in an humiliating defeat. Or, ah, take him back to the faction so that he might pay for his actions. Yes, yes. She once had a mate, but rumor is she killed him for disrespecting her father, who was once the greatest warrior over fifty millenniums before. However, no one's been able to prove it, and she still stands as the most respected fighter in the subfaction.
Persona: Unlike others of her kind, she can be very, very patient, known to wait until the opportune moment before striking the fatal blow. She doesn't believe in wasting time, and she tends to be quick to the point. Justina is a free spirit who believes in work before play, but when she parties she parties hard.
Weapons/Spells: In her human form she has the two gauntlets that hide sliding knives - perfect for stabbing and disarming. She doesn't need to wear armor because no normal sword could pierce her skin anyway - it's tough like a Megarhino's. She's also known to summon a scythe of fire from time to time.

The four eyes around her are part of a intense spell that her father taught her many years previously. No exact description of the magic has been acquired, but rest assured - knowing Justina, it's probably very destructive, and very deadly.
Mission in Life: Just recently she left her faction on a quest - to find the traitor Roth and either kill him or bring him alive. However, this is a secret, and no one knows she is a dragon-traitor hunter. That is going to be kept secret for a very long time. When asked however, she will say her mission is to have a volcano she can call her own.
Quirks: She carries around a great cross made of wrought iron. If asked about it, she says a Priest Human gave it to her for good luck. When casting spells or angered, her eyes become the negative image of each other. Upon entering a new town, she likes to keep the fact that she's a dragon a secret, for you never know what motives lie beneath reassuring smiles. She is also over seven feet tall.
Any Factions or Subfactions She Likes? Why?: She likes her own faction, and all other subfactions have to do with fire or strength, not including the Phoenix. She also particularly enjoys the calming auras of healing creatures.
Any She Hates? Why?: The Phoenix, of course - and the Head Hunters. They are a malicious bunch. The vampires as well.

(Entire song. xD)
"Feel it or not you’re gonna fear it like I showed you the spirit of god lives in us. For shizzle my whizzle this is the plot listen up. You bizzles forgot slizzle does not give a ********. My thoughts are sporadic, I act like I’m an addict. Till the roof comes off, till the lights go out, till my legs give out, can’t shut my mouth. Till the smoke clears out and my high burn out, I'ma rip this s**t till my bone collapse."
Other: She's a pretty good friend of Koratis, though she doesn't know Koratis isn't a true dragon from true dragon parents. Koratis intends to keep it a secret from Justina, due to the fact she knows Justina has very intense pride for the faction, and isn't sure how the Fire Dragon would react.






Character Name: Fafnir Icespeare
Subfaction: Ice
Age: 7023
Bio: Many years ago, he was once the lover of Nex Gelu-Ocula, having abandoned her due to the fact that she was unable to carry on his line. Unfortunately, this seemed to mark the unlucky streak of his life involving love, as both his next mate and child died during birth. After their burial, he simply got up and left. No one questioned it, and no one even called him a traitor. Now he simply wanders.
Persona: He is what you'd call the 'strong, silent type'. He doesn't say much, but he's the type of person you'll feel safe with. If you gain his trust, he will protect you till the end. Other than that, who knows?
Weapons/Spells: He has an intense power over ice, capable of making weapons from it and can lower the temperatures to subzero on a whim.
Mission in Life: Whimsically, he wants to find Nex. Maybe even make amends. Rumor is, however, that he's involved with Koratis. Neither of them have commented on the idea, and they are never seen together in public - or even in the same place at the same time.
Quirks: He often doesn't use his dragonic magic. He tends to rely on brute strength. His skin is so chilling it burns.
Any Factions or Subfactions He Likes? Why?: He really has no particular tastes.
Any He Hates? Why?: As long as they're not out for his blood, he feels no hatred.

Theme Song: Snow ~ The Red Hot Chili Peppers
Line of Song that Made You Choose That Song:
"Deep beneath the cover of another perfect wonder where it's so white as snow, running through the field where all my tracks will be concealed and there's nowhere to go."

Character Name: Amon Zeidematai, but his 'human' nickname is Insignia. His last name, similar to his 'best friend's, means 'warmonger'.
Subfaction: Dark
Age: 6029
Bio: He used to be a sweet, innocent boy. At ease with life and just a little too oblivious to the obvious affections of the young girls around him - especially one that he was very close friends with. Their relationship was simply a fuddle of misunderstandings and miscommunication, resulting in both of them feeling just a little bitter. At first, she liked him, but his boyish immaturity and blindness to her affection made him immune to her subtle advances, and left her heart-broken and even more withdrawn. By the time he realized what had been happening, what she had felt, and how he felt about her, she had already separated herself from the clan and fled, leaving him alone and without any true companions. Needless to say, one could say he never quite recovered. But then, a few hundred years later, the bomb dropped.

After his best friend left, life seemed to fall into the sea with the death of Amon's father, who was betrayed by his very own brother (Amon's uncle), who wanted to be leader of the clan. Then it was revealed that Amon's mother had actually been having an affair with his uncle, and that in truth Amon's uncle was not really his uncle, but his father. Amon ended up utterly annihilating his uncle, but by that time his 'father' was dead and the change had been made.
Persona:
When he was younger, he was immature - just like any other boy. He was sweet, but wasn't really smart. Amon was energetic, comedic, and always craving to be the center of attention.

Now Amon has changed 180 degrees. He rarely ever smiles, and when he does it is to the best of friends (so in other words, never). Formerly lighthearted and kind, nowadays he eagerly snatches up any chance to draw blood, and he has the nasty habit of over-exaggerating things - both to himself and to others - to reinforce the reasons that he draws his blade. Once admonishing the sword and taking his natural talents as more like jokes and ways to play games than actual forms of attack, he now knows nothing but violence, and has dedicated his life to the absolute mastery of his skills. He is not the Amon everyone knew before his father's death and his mother's betrayal, and his dragon form has changed to match the cruel transition.

His face, for some strange reason, has not lost that soft look he had when he was little - his caretakers (seeing as how his mother had been thrown out for adultery) still claim he had his 'baby face', and that his father had been the exact same way.

But, oh, that's right. His father hadn't really been his father, had he? Either way, the face is great for fooling people into thinking he's actually a good person. And maybe he is. Maybe that sweet, sensitive boy is still there, drowning in the seas of endless sorrow. But the only person who could possibly save him, for all he knows, is dead. So what's the point of even hoping anymore?
Weapons/Spells: The oddly-shaped sword he creates upon entering his humanoid form, and the Dark Dragons' natural ability to command the shadows. He also possesses a strange ability to paint shadows on the skin of either friends or enemies. Regardless of the protective covering, the darkness will have a certain effect based on where it's placed and what is exactly painted. Amon tends to use this effect more in his human form than anything, thus his alias as Insignia. His style of painting with shadow is unique and unmistakable, impossible to copy.
Mission in Life: In reality, he wants to kill his mother for tearing his life apart, and he wishes he had kept his uncle alive, just so he could kill him again. His other mission, is just to shed blood. Wherever and however he can. The third, lesser-known one... is to simply find her. Find her and apologize, and maybe even be saved.
Quirks: Unlike others, Amon is better at fighting in his humanoid form than he is in either his full-human or full-dragon forms. But he is slow to change into that form unless the threat is severe enough. He only transforms into a dragon under the direst of emergencies.
Any Factions or Subfactions He Likes? Why?: Any that can fight, he will gladly engage. And kill.
Any He Hates? Why?: Any that are too fearful to raise up their arms and fight.

Isnt he just the coolest thing?

Line of Song that Made You Choose That Song:
"We're going off tonight to kick out every light, take anything we want, drink everything in sight. We're going till the world stops turning while we burn it to the ground tonight"
Other: He was once a close friend of Mikeal's, but he left to deal with some unknown threat to the Dark Dragon subfaction that took many years to eliminate. Now he's back in town, and is probably going to drop by to visit again. Amon is also stickler for detail, and has incredibly sharp eyes. He's also taken the liberty of using his painting skills to ink himself up. So, wanna see em? Curling around his left hip bone, side and lower left back, on his shoulder blades, his inner left wrist, behind his right ear, on his right shoulder, and where better for the last one than right over his heart?

Character Name: Formerly Kyeana Shimeriae, now Phoebe Phantasma
Subfaction: Platinum
Age: 598
Bio: You would've thought that age would've taught this girl a thing or two about conservation - no such luck. Having been thrown out of her flock because some drunken escapade gone wrong when she was less than three hundred years old, resulting in the death of her best friend, Phoebe changed her name and started a new life - this time as a human - pretty much forgetting the beauty of her Gryphon form. She is forbidden from even entering the Cheshreer Desert, and do to so means certain death for her. Hey, in her defense, her best friend was drunk too. But did she get punished? Noooooooo. Forget the fact that she died.

Nowadays Phoebe's found an occupation as a less-than-famous professional choreographer and disk jocky at a local club. But it's rumored that she works as - surprise, surprise - a stripper at yet another club. Apparently Mercury City has a lot of them. Because of her incredible change in identity, her Gryphon form has changed as well - though she wouldn't know; it's been so long since she's used it. For her, it isn't a symbol of elegance or strength - it's merely the disgusting reminder of the bitter past Phoebe would rather forget.

Losing her best friend has affected her more than she lets on. That one stupid mistake has sent her in a massive downwards spiral - drinking until she drops nearly every weekend, and waking up in a room she doesn't recognize is simply habit now. But will she ever admit she has a problem? No. Because she's a party girl, and party girls never admit they're having anything short of a good time. At least, she thinks it's because she enjoys it, and not because she's trying to change the past by forgetting she has one.
Persona: This little girl is - some can say - a mix of Victoria and Mara in personality, but don't you dare ever let Phoebe hear of it. Unlike Victoria, she's more than just a tease and, unlike Mara, Phoebe doesn't really care who she sleeps with; doesn't matter with that beer bottle in her hands. She's flirtatious, quick to pull the trigger, and isn't very intelligent. At least,any intelligence she has is clouded by alcohol and an instinct to get away. But usually, in the chaos of the club, what she wants she gets without too much effort. Naked pictures of her are now commonplace, and everyone with any sense looks down on her. But does she care? No, she doesn't, she tells herself. They're just jealous because they aren't as free.
Weapons/Spells: Phoebe can control sound. Her voice can be amplified to the point that it shatters glass and splits eardrums - this usually happens when she screams out in fury. But she can indeed control the power behind it. Usually. However, it only affects those who are directly in front of her, but she can increase the strength of other sounds too, or certain aspects of that same sound. For instance, using a beat with a soft underlying bass, she can increase the bass until the entire building shakes. She can also kill a voice - silence a person for a short amount of time or, in exchange for a massive amount of energy, strip a voice permanently away from a single being.
Mission in Life: To have a good time every damn day of her life, even if it kills her.
Quirks: Phoebe is an amazing dancer; not just on the job, but in all aspects. Ballet, jazz, hip hop - she is incredibly in tune to the beat of music and the way music flows. She has incredible upper body strength, and she is occasionally seen break-dancing at grittier clubs. Phoebe is notorious for smashing down walls in drunken rages, but she's usually a cheerful drunk. She also has the habit of completely changing the way she looks - contacts, magic, anything. But she only rarely dyes her hair, preferring to keep her long, gorgeous blonde locks.
Any Factions or Subfactions She Likes? Why?: All of them as long as they know how to party and drink. And if they don't, she'll teach them.
Any She Hates? Why?: The Gryphon clan, for 'overreacting' and throwing her out. She was only a girl, after all.

Other: A part of her knows it doesn't matter how hard she parties, how many people she wakes up in bed next to. At the end of the day, at the end of it all, she's alone. Alone in a world that doesn't care.




Character Name: Mizoto Goldclaw
Subfaction: Gold
Age: 332
Bio: When you look completely different when compared to the rest of your kin, some tension and rejection is bound to happen - thus is what Mizoto went through for a large majority of his life. There was no downright shunning or insulting, but Mizoto was perfectly aware of the apprehensive glances and the awkward silences wherever he went. So he simply decided to leave. As far as he knows, they neither know nor care where he went.
Persona: He is very soft-spoken and, due to the constant clashing of his Gold Gryphon nature and the rejection, he has very low self-esteem. He thinks himself the lowest of the low, and rarely ever speaks. Many think of this as timidness, but others think its actually deep, deep hatred for the Gold Subfaction. Which is strange, because Mizoto seems incapable of hatred.
Mission in Life: If he has a mission, no one really knows about it. He doesn't speak enough to tell anyone really anything.
Quirks: Besides his coloration, he is also very large for his subfaction - yet another instance where he differs from everyone else. He has a strange obsession for all things beautiful, and will put his life on the line to protect beauty. Like all Gryphons, no one call tell lies within his earshot. He has the ability to find beauty in everything.
Any Factions or Subfactions He Likes? Why?: Any and all factions that are beautiful.
Any He Hates? Why?: He hates none. He has even managed to find a twisted, absurd beauty in the vicious Head Hunters.
Gryphon Appearance:

Pets:
Bella

This little girl is called a Fae-Cat - a fairy in the shape of a feline. She is kind, and tries to give Mizoto confident pep-talks whenever possible. Bella may be small, but she makes up for it with attitude and a lot of sass, not afraid to take on opponents many times her own size. As all fairies, she has some magic, specializing in shields and spells of illusion. After saving her from a Giant Venus Flytrap, Mizoto decided to allow her to stay with him, and it was from her - the first creature to ever accept him - that his love for beauty first bloomed.

Character Name: Demetri Clazenta
Subfaction: Iron
Age: 837
Bio: Demetri's story is one of both death and rebirth. He was born into a very traditional family, and his father strongly believed in using the Gryphons' natural talents to help the world. Thus, his father was constantly away on trips as a bodyguard and interrogations as a lie-detector, and Demetri never really saw him very often. Left with his mother and two baby sisters, Demetri was given the responsibility to care for his family at a relatively young age for a Gryphon, and he was applauded in the entire subfaction as a brave soul. As a result though, he proved to be less manly than many others around. His mother and siblings were very open-minded thankfully, and so was the rest of his subfaction. Eventually he found the love of his life in another male Gryphon named Rahuel. Everything was fine for several dozen years. Until his father came home.

When Demetri's father found out about his sexuality, the older Gryphon went insane, completely disowning Demetri and throwing him out of the house, forbidding the young Gryphon from ever setting foot near the cave again. The violence spiraled out of control, and in the mists of fleeing the desert with Demetri, Rahuel was struck down by other members of the flock, buried beneath a rock slide. Shocked and heartbroken, Demetri fled, unable to save Rahuel's life possibly at the cost of his own. He has been wandering ever since, and managed to find some sort of solace in Mercury City, where he is very close (if not a little tense) friends with Alina Godsend, of the Humans. She is the only one he will ever speak to about deep, unsettling feelings.
Persona: Rahuel's death and his shun from the clan left very, very heavy sores upon Demetri's heart. He was highly suicidal, and was quite the severe cutter for at least a hundred years. Having been saved from bleeding to death by Alina and Markus one day, Demetri was taken to Mercury City and nursed back to health, saved only because of Alina's potent healing capabilities. Over time, she managed to save him from suicidal thoughts, and even managed to make him put the knife down forever.

Nowadays he is quiet, but cheerful, willing to lend a gentle, guiding hand to those who need it. He is highly sensitive to emotions, and will do anything he can to make a person feel better. He remembers his days as an emotional wreck, and tries to tell others like him that it doesn't have to be that way. The memory of Rahuel still brings him down from time to time, but he has people to help him through the relapses, and because of Alina's faith in him, he has high - albeit quiet - hopes for the future. Demetri's happiness is the silent, unwavering type - the type of unshakable faith that you only find in fairy tales.
Mission in Life: To save other people like Alina saved him.
Quirks: He finds good things in every situation, and tries to encourage others to do the same. Demetri is the kind of person that can make anyone smile.
Any Factions or Subfactions He Likes? Why?: Everyone that is happy, or that makes him happy. He still loves his own subfaction, blaming Rahuel's death on himself.
Any He Hates? Why?: He doesn't hate anyone, but he is slightly afraid of the dark subfactions such as Dark Dragons and Black Phoenix. Natural-born hatred for the Dragons has all but dwindled down to nothing in the revelation that evil can exist even in the people you love most.

"All this pain. Take this life and make it yours. All this hate. Take your heart and let it love again, You will survive this somehow, 'cause life starts now. You've done all the things that could kill you somehow, and you're so far down. But you will survive this somehow, because life starts now."
Other: His favorite saying is this: "Things aren't meant to end badly. If it's bad right now, then it's not the end."

Character Name: Belphe Ariata
Subfaction and Clan: Tangu, of the Pretty Bird Clan
Age: She looks to be young, but in truth she's in her fifties.
Bio: The prodigy of the Pretty Bird Clan - one of the larger clans in the subfaction - she is adored and loved for her gorgeous body and one-of-a-kind wings. She was originally going to take over the clan once the elders died, but she knew that was no life for her, and thus took to a life of wandering. However, whenever her presence is needed by the subfaction or faction as a whole, she'll appear. Her words carry great weight to the subfaction.
Persona: She's generally sweet and good-intentioned, but most of the time she's sarcastic and sporadic. Passionate about whatever it is she's devoted to, she's had a bit of a troubling history featuring the other clans in the subfaction. Though she's a bit insulting and short-tempered, it's mostly playful banter, and in truth she does mean well.
Weapons/Spells: For such a delicate-looking creature she's surprisingly strong, and she's agile both in air and on the ground. She's very flexible and can bend in all sorts of ways. Belphe also carries a bow staff that she wields with surprising skill. In other words, she knows how to crush skulls in with a single swing.
Mission in Life: She wants people to look past her amazing figure and beautiful looks to see the person she really is. She wants to be not just sweet on the outside, but sweet on the inside too.
Quirks: Her wings are iridescent, sparkling in all lights, and glowing with their own internal power. However, the twisted side to her personality makes itself known here - the more suffering around her, the more beautiful she becomes.
Any Factions or Subfactions She Likes? Why?: She secretly enjoys the humans because they adore her wherever she goes, and she admires the Phoenix faction greatly for their beauty.
Any She Hates? Why?: The Orocho subfaction of course, for they prey on birds. She also detests the Nekos for their whorish nature, and she is a little afraid of the Dragons.

Character Name: Mara Queenclaw
Subfaction and Clan: Neko, of the Small Kat Klan
Age: 34. She looks to be a young teenager, however.
Bio: One of the royals of the Small Kat Klan, stubborn, conceded Mara ran away from home when she was a kitten, and never really found her way back. After a while, her clansmen managed to find her, but the scout was unable to bring her back, and thus resigned to stay with her and keep her out of trouble. Regnes, as her bodyguard is called, almost never leaves her side. However, trouble tends to find Mara, and not the other way around. This fact often leaves Regnes exasperated and exhausted.
Persona: She is snobbish, rude, and thinks the entire world revolves around her. When she doesn't get her way, she often resorts to sexy persuasion, low blows, or violence. This violence often tends to have a wall or two blown out before the end of it. She IS a bit of a promiscuous little girl, but that's to be expected of a Neko. However, she is incredibly picky of the men she allows to get that close to her. She's also a bit of a germ-a-phobe.
Weapons/Spells: The ability is rare in her clan, but she is capable of growing to almost five times the size of an average house cat into something of a demonic feline - more of a giant lion than anything else, minus the mane. The royal family is the only known source of this ability, and she is no exception. However, she is considerably more powerful than many of her siblings - which is very bad when taken into account she often abuses this power. She's quick to temper and even quicker to change. All else, of course, is common of felines - including claws and fangs, an incredible sense of balance, and an eerie obsession with milk.
Mission in Life: To get Regnes and the entire royal family off her back - and to have all the fun without all the drawbacks.
Quirks: She either drinks milk or water - alcohol doesn't effect her, but milk seems to have the drunk-inducing properties that alcohol does. As a result, she's often seen stumbling around with an empty bottle of milk in her hands. When she's drunk, she's very sweet and is very, very hard to anger. In the words of Regnes - "She's easier to handle that way."
Any Factions or Subfactions She Likes? Why?: She has the tendency to think all factions are beneath her.
Any She Hates? Why?: All the gross ones, of course! Like the Head Hunters and Orocho Demons! Turning into a snake is SO disgusting!
Demonic Form:

Pets: Regnes - she considers him a pet that won't get a clue and leave her alone. His profile and picture are in the next post below.

"I'm the kind that chur momma and your daddy were afraid you'd turn out to be like. I'm a one-eighty to the stereotype girls - like staying home and being innocent. I like all my shorts to be a little too shorty. Unlike all my guys I like 'em tall with money. I love all my nights to end a little bit nasty. Can't change the way I am - sexy, naughty, bitchy me."
Other: She REALLY wishes Regnes would just leave her the ******** alone. Also, whenever she's in her house-cat form, she hates it when people are taller than her, so she tries to get to the highest point before addressing anyone.

Character Name: Lara Fangeri
Subfaction: Orochi, in the form of a King Cobra.
Age: 116
Bio: Poor Lara was the failed attempt to make her father's weak bloodline great. Everything he attempted had negative results, and the vicious training and heartless attitude caused whatever outgoing persona Lara had to close up and disappear. So, as a last ditch effort, her father attempted to marry her off to a vicious Black Mamba Orochi-Demon, who was one of the most powerful warriors in the clan, but also one of the most ruthless creatures Lara had ever seen. In fear for both her life and her sanity, Lara fled her family and the engagement. Now she's settled into Mercury City for the most part, though she has yet to make any strong connections.
Persona: Lara has always been a quiet girl. Never really standing out and never really making anything of herself, no matter how hard her father pushed her. Not that she's not ambitious, per say, but more like she's shy, and doesn't exactly know what to do with herself. Her father's attitude towards her has caused her to become incredibly withdrawn, and she only reacts violently under very, very specific, severe conditions. All of which are known by her pet King Cobra and closest companion, Myko.
Weapons/Spells: Her poisonous fangs and vicious squeeze are present, but they are signature of her race. However, there is something that her father never discovered - and would probably kill to possess again if he ever found out about it. Lara is naturally very sweet and very quiet, but if the poison of a snake of the opposite sex enters her blood stream (say, like Myko's), there is a temporary, radical change in both Lara's mind and body. She goes on rampage, changing into a massive snake and completely obliterating everything in her path until she collapses, unconscious, an certain amount of time later. Such cases of 'Beserker-Orochi' are incredibly rare, and Lara never remembers what happened as a result of that rage. It could be even thought that she doesn't know she has it.
Mission in Life: To overcome her fear of both men and life.
Quirks: Though she is shy, her blood has made her something of a Regal Orochi Demon - one of royalty - and thus she always walks with perfect posture and chin held high. If her eyes weren't so fearful, she could almost be seen as intimidating.
Any Factions or Subfactions She Likes? Why?: She doesn't like factions or subfactions, per say, but she prefers females to males - probably because of her father's treatment.
Any She Hates? Why?: She doesn't hate men, but she'd rather them not come near her. She has the tendency to get miniature panic attacks when there are many of them around her.

Character Name: Karasu Shirray
Subfaction: Mizu, brat.
Age: 79, maybe 89.
Bio: Karasu is a classic bloodthirsty Mizu Demon. He can never hold a job for long due to his carnivorous ways, and its only Innkeeper Barro's iron will that stops him from feasting on the creatures that spend the night at the inn. The only reason he hangs out in Mercury City is because it's right next to the Kachak River - a quick source of water whenever he's feeling parched. He usually makes his living by hunting monsters for their fur, selling the fur and eating the rest. He's a live one.
Persona: Don't let the ears fool you - he's got wicked sharp teeth and skin so rough it can scratch stone, no matter how smooth it looks. People don't like to go near him - mainly because it is quite possible he might literally bite your head off.
Weapons: His fangs and excellent senses, along with an incredible knowledge of the water and weather. He can smell rain or fire from more than forty miles away, and can plan accordingly.
Mission in Life: To eat as many different northern fish species as possible.
Quirks: Though he's a carnivore, Karasu claims not to like beef. Unhealthy for you, he claims. Due to the light blue tint of his skin, he looks unhealthy and pale beneath bright lights.
Any Factions or Subfactions He Likes? Why?: Those Humans are so very tasty-looking...
Any He Hates? Why?: The damned Headhunters! The next one that tries to hunt him down is getting his own head ripped off!
Demonic Form:

Character Name: Regnes Catscratch
Subfaction and Clan: Neko, of the Big Kat Klan
Age: 49
Bio: Though he is of the Big Kat Klan, he was abandoned as a kitten, and was taken in by the Small Kat Klan, raised as a bodyguard and protector of the royal family. After Mara ran away, he was put in charge of tracking her down and taking her back. When he finally found her, she refused to go back and Regnes - unable to leave her side - decided to stay and keep an eye out for her. Having known her since she was a kitten, he is very devoted to her, and some might say even in love.
Persona: Regnes is very sweet-hearted - trying to please everyone and taking every piece of criticism personally. However, he is very serious about his job and - though he might not be able to stop Mara a large percent of the time - that won't stop him from trying. If she's doing something that will endanger her life, he'll follow along and even place himself in danger for her. Many see this as noble, but Mara sees it as simply annoying, and she disrespects and abuses Regnes any time she can.
Weapons/Spells: Having the blood of a large black leopard, he has intense physical strength and a jaw that can crush bone. His balance and dexterity is only rivaled by others of his subfaction. The reason he is so widely accepted by the royal family is solely due to his coloration, and not his devotion.
Mission in Life: To protect Mara from whatever comes her way, and somehow manage to make it to 50 without dying.
Quirks: He is one of the rare cats that dislikes milk. He'd rather have water and - instead of rats or fish - large deer or antelope. He enjoys gnawing on things.
Any Factions or Subfactions He Likes? Why?: He loves his subfaction, as well as Beast Keepers. For the most part, they are an honorable faction.
Any He Hates? Why?: As a creature that hates fire, he despises the Phoenix and Dragon factions. However, this hatred is quiet, and you wouldn't even guess Regnes of being capable of hate at all. He is very compassionate.
Demonic Form:

Theme Song: Your Guardian Angel ~ The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
Line of Song that Made You Choose That Song:
Other: Though he is faithful and loyal, Mara sees him as a mere nuisance, and would do anything to get rid of him. People always ask him why he puts up with it, and he merely shrugs and doesn't answer. Either the constant insults and spats don't affect him, or he's very, very talented at covering up the pain.

Character Name: Markus Crow
Subfaction and Clan: Tangu, of the Trickster Crow Clan
Age: 36,625, or so he claims. Doubtful though, right?
Bio: One of Alina Godsend's escorts, he met her through an ex-boyfriend of hers. When their relationship broke down in a fiery blaze, Markus realized how ridiculously immature his ex-charge was, and left him to follow Alina, protecting her instead. At first, she was a bit apprehensive about Markus and his 'brother' following her, but in time she grew used to it, and has even come to enjoy their company. They have saved her life on more than one occasion.
Persona: He's a bit of a doofus; flamboyant and easy to underestimate. Light-hearted, silly, and always ready to crack jokes, Markus is NOT the type for awkward silences. Good for him. He's also just a little BIT gay. His appearance is without the maroon highlights in his hair.
Weapons/Spells: He has a b*****d blade - a pretty badass sword, if there's anyone that doesn't know - along with all the common senses of the crow.
Mission in Life: Currently, he doesn't have one. If you don't count bugging the crap out of Alina whenever possible a mission.
Quirks: Unlike other crows, he is a vegetarian, not an omnivore. Markus also has a personality that is the exact opposite of the symbol his bird portrays - for death, he's a very cheerful creature.
Any Factions or Subfactions He Likes? Why?: He's the kinda guy who loves EVERYONE.
Any He Hates? Why?: He doesn't particularly like vampires, and the only reason he hates dragons is because his brother does. Strange brothers, huh?

Character Name: Iosara Blackblade
Age: 53
Subfaction: Some would call him a mage, but he prefers keeping a neutral ground.
Bio: The ruler of the Kingdom of Ranute - which bases more with magic than with brute strength - he inherited the kingdom from his father, who died due to an elevated state of bronchitis. He has ruled with a steady hand and, though he is getting on in years, knows his family will make him proud.
Persona: He is calm, cool, and collected. Iosara rarely loses his cool, and he is very kind, though he possesses a booming voice.
Weapons/Spells: His specialties are fire and water, and he has mastered the unique ability to combine opposite elements for devastating attacks.
Mission in Life: He wishes to be the best ruler he can be, and to create a calm world for his children and grandchildren.
Quirks: He has a passion for strange and beautiful creatures, and will often be seen trying to create new animals using alchemy. His successes are seen everywhere in the castle grounds.
Any Factions or Subfactions He Likes? Why?: As a ruler, he cannot disclose his likes and dislikes. But currently he has an alliance with the Gryphon faction.
Any He Hates? Why?: Unless the faction has tried to destroy the Ranute Kingdom, Iosara does not hate them. However, since the vampires did INDEED attempt that very thing several thousand years ago, universal hatred for the faction runs deep.
Pets: All the strange creatures he's created over the years...
Other: His entire family is somehow, someway related to the magical arts. The entire kingdom buzzes with magical aura.

Character Name: Ilana Blackblade
Age: 36
Subfaction: Ex-Elementalist
Element: Ice
Bio: Iosara's wife and Queen of Ranute since she was but nineteen, she lost a large majority of her childhood years training to be the perfect lady, and perhaps even the perfect wife for the striking young (at the time) Prince Iosara. As a result, she had many dreams left unfulfilled, and over time, her heart grew bitter. Iosara seems oblivious to her almost-chilly persona, dismissing her strange quirks as mere side effects of her particular element.
Persona: Ilana is cool to strangers, but icy to her family, always seeming to be in sharp discontent and malicious disgust with her children. A part of her knows she should try to give them the opportunity to fulfill their dreams, but another part of her thinks, if she couldn't be happy, why should they?
Weapons/Spells: Once a promising Elementalist, the unexpected death of Iosara's father had her slowing down her studies, and eventually she stopped training completely. After a few years, however, she began to pick it up again. She still does occasionally train when the castle is empty and she's alone. Her favorite attack was a bow-and-arrow combination made out of ice that could track magical energies of her targets.
Mission In Life: When she was younger, she dreamed of visiting the Cordalisk Ice Plains and learning from the Ice Dragons. But now that she's older, any mission has all but vanished.
Quirks: She dresses either in all white or very, very light colors of beige. The only color she allows herself are any accessories she wears, and even then those are merely splashes. Ilana is a fan of furs and animal skins.
Any Factions or Subfactions She Likes? Why?: Ilana appreciates the Ice Dragons and fellow Ice Elementalists.
Any She Hates? Why?: Any faction or subfaction with powerful amounts of color, she utterly despises.
Familiar's Name: Polaris
Familiar's Appearance:

Other: Polaris is soft-spoken, and it's very hard to tell what he's thinking unless he tells you specifically what's on his mind. His armor, unlike Ilana's dreams, remains polished and very, very strong.

Character Names: Renegade and Eziliyn Blackblade (respectively)
Subfaction: Renegade is a Mage, while Eziliyn is Neutral.
Why Are You Neutral?: Being heir to the throne of Ranute, Eziliyn cannot openly show a loyalty to any group of people except those in his kingdom.
Age: They are both 20.
Bio: Renegade and Eziliyn are twins, born to Ilana during a beautiful spring afternoon. Eziliyn was deemed 'normal', but Renegade was born with one eye a different color than the other, and he was deemed a cursed child. He was abandoned as an infant, but despite that, he and his twin have led very similar lives. They both enjoy archery, they both had run-ins with monsters that were way too strong for their skill level at the time, and they have both nearly died doing stupid stunts. Though they are separate, they are still very aware of each other's existence, and Renegade sneaks in to visit Eziliyn once in a while, or vice-versa. They dress in nearly identical fashions.
Persona: They are both tricksters, tending to use their magic more for fun and jokes rather than actually be serious about it. Eziliyn is more laid-back and easy-going, preferring to take things in stride, while Renegade is a bit more testy, sadistic, and quick to start a fight. They have many different nicknames for each other, and tend to speak in either riddles or confusing lingo. They are both huge fans of Shakespeare.
Weapons/Spells: They both specialize in illusions - Eziliyn more so than Renegade. The illusions they create are so powerful that realizing it is an illusion, breaking things, and pain do not stop the illusion. They are so powerful that if you die in the illusion, your mind thinks you are actually dying regardless if you know it's an illusion or not, and thus your body actually dies in real life. When they are separate their powers at foolery is lessened, but together they can recreate entire worlds. Renegade, however, is more prone to use direct physical attacks when cornered. Eziliyn will try to talk people out of being violent and slip away unnoticed to launch an unexpected counter-attack later.
Mission in Life: Eziliyn's is to find some way to make Renegade accepted again. Renegade's is to destroy all who defy him.
Quirks: Renegade has the tendency to attract all sorts of strange creatures. He can attack them and hurt them and almost kill them, but they will keep following him around. Some are useless, some not so much. Eziliyn seems unable to become enraged; he can become irked, annoyed, or irritated, but he rarely ever loses his cool. They both are unable to be fooled by other illusions, meaning they can see through the humanoid spells other factions cast up to hide their true forms. They enjoy having dirt on other people.
Any Factions or Subfactions They Like? Why?: They really don't like letting people know much about them, so they stay hush-hush about things like this.
Any They Hate? Why?: Ditto.
Pets:
Eziliyn:
Roctate
Roctate was a gift from Iosara when Eziliyn turned sixteen. He is a fiery creature who will deftly defend Eziliyn against weaker enemies, but will turn tail and run when something poses too much of a challenge. He is a bit of a coward.
Renegade:
Hectate
Hectate isn't REALLY Renegade's pet. She's just a demon cat that became attached to him and has refused to let him out of her sight since. Eziliyn is the one that named her. She bugs the crap out of Renegade.

Character Name: Soraya Blackblade
Subfaction: Elementalist
Element: Lightning
Age: 17
Bio: She is a child born in luxury, with access to everything she could ever possibly want. But she's always been a greedy child, so she's always wanted more. An urge to explore and travel has plagued her ever since she was small, and so her older brother Eziliyn - who absolutely enjoys mischief - decided to help her sneak out of the castle occasionally with one of the many pets roaming the grounds, always either making excuses or clones to help cover her absence and using magic to change her appearance every time. In two years, she's journeyed almost everywhere in the eastern half of the continent, and now she's venturing further west.
Persona: Soraya's always been a brave, stupid child. Sporadic and powerful just like the lightning she controls. Sometimes her power falters - like during lightning storms or harsh weather, but at the same time her familiar urges her to use such storms to increase her power. She's a powerhouse - a stupid, naive little powerhouse.
Weapons/Spells: She controls lightning, and, like her mother, she excels at archery. She can channel her electric energy into her arrows and - with striking the target - mark them as a target for lightning from above. Eziliyn has told her that she could even control the electric impulses in the brain, but she has a lot more training to go before she can control something like that.
Mission in Life: To see the world, and to get out of her responsibilities as a princess. Let Eziliyn rule the kingdom when her old hag of a father dies.
Quirks: When she is at home, she is a trophy child- the perfect, most innocent little girl. But when she's out of the safety of the castle she's snappish, conceded, and quick to display her power. She is not very modest at all. She's also not very original with faux names. For instance, the name she is going by now is Sora.
Any Factions or Subfactions She Likes? Why?: The Lycanthropes had welcomed her upon her visiting, and she finds the human Priests so humble and devoted, but stupid. She wishes she were a Pirate, so she could travel the world and seas.
Any She Hates? Why?: She's always detested Vampires, and she's had a bad run-in with a particularly less-than-innocent Fire Elementalist. Wanna take a crack at who THAT was?
Pets:
Asheen
Seeing as how she wasn't about to traverse all the way to Mercury City and around on foot, Eziliyn snuck her a species of horse that Iosara had successfully captured and tamed.
Familiar's Name: Shiva
Familiar's Appearance:
Little Bug
This is Shiva's true form, with the colors of bright neon yellow and eye-popping, headache-inducing florescent blue and green. His spines rub together at amazing speeds to conduct extra electricity for Soraya to use in emergency situations. He is rather small - only about four inches from nose to tail. His tail is capable of delivering quite a nasty shock.
